CRUZE this A+ Review

About 3 months shy of 2 yrs owning this cruze. Extremely surprised and happy with performance. Worry free transportation. 26,000 miles now. Eagerly making an effort to get this one paid off so my daughter can have it by Christmas so I can get a new 2017 Cruze. Nothing but positive words about Ancira Chevrolet. We have enjoyed having the confidence to go on an extended 6,000 mile road trip and countless 800 mile round trips to Alpine (college) and back to San Antonio. UPDATE: Sept 2017: 35,000 miles, regular services, never had a problem with anything. Extremely happy, with full intentions of grabbing one of the 17s, what with all the great reviews. For gas saving and a sporty look, you won't beat the Cruze.

two Cruzes that weren’t worth the head ache.

The car is relatively comfortable, long trips seem to come to realize the stiffness of the front seats, back is kinda small and im 5'7". Brakes tend to be touchy in the morning and will stop overly quick when not carefull. The big one from me is the security system seems to engage even after unlocked to key turned. This will not alow the vehicle to start and simply makes the car sound like the battery has died. (Battery check and passed) I purchased this second cruze after just under two year with the prior one, no issues with my 2013(should of kept it. I wanted to be assured and was confident that during they time my fiance was traveling to and from college that no issues would happen thus new car no problems right. Well wrong, now after reading several threads online it appears im not the only one with this no start problem, and with a wedding coming up in the next year funds are tight so stopping by the dealer and paying $100 to take a look at what might be causeing the issue and then fixing what may or may not be the problem when bumper to bumper is up will only further the issue of a tight budget. So far we've somewhat learned to work around the constant resetting of the dash and slow crank if it does, or even putting the vehicle in nutral to resolve a start. If your going to by this car anti theft is probably a no go, just install your own alarm. Way less headaches. Continuation: after just over a year and a half a few more issues popped up. The window tabs that actually keep the glass in place broke and so a call to the local Chevy parts department was made. Needless to say amazon and YouTube were the end result with sixty dollars spent and a quick twenty minute install. I can’t imagine the repair department charging me less. Shortly there after my now wife was driving back from college and the Cruze began to over heat and vehicle instrument panel told her to turn off the car. I of course was out of town on training. This instantly infuriated me as the whole reason behind the second purchase was to have a reliable vehicle even when I wasn’t there. A friend I’m blessed to have rushed to my wife’s aid and found that the coolant level was very low. After a quick trip to the parts store and fluids topped off it was back on the road. Once I was back I looked into the issue. I found that there was a small crack in a coolant return hard line just before the thermostat. Again a call to the dealer part store lost to amazon and YouTube. Again a twenty minute swap and all was well right? Wrong A week to the day upon driving in to our residents same over heat and request to shit down. Again fluids were low, only this time I found that the overflow reservoir was cracked as well. Both went unseen due to the vehicle needing to be on for a puddle to form under the vehicle as pressures in the lines built up. So when parked over night there was never any cause for concern. A quick amazon order later and new fluids added botta bing botta boom done. Cruze drove well after that until the big move. We begin driving north some six to eight hundred miles away looking for a new place to live seeing as I accepted a new employment opportunity. One our way back one afternoon an absolute down poor soaked everything in sight. While I was drive during one of the heavy portions I noticed the traction control lights would come on during the drive and it felt as though I was loosing steering control and the car would drift right. After several stints with that issue it was decided to let go of our gas saver and move on. In June of 2018 we said good bye to the Cruze and good bye to Chevy as it was the last time I’d purchase from that brand.

I traded my chevy spark for the cruze and was pleasantly surprised. it is the most solid, smooth, and quiet cars I have ever driven. The outside looks like a leveled down bmw but with more character, the inside feels way more upscale than any chevy I ever owned. I feel more confident as a driver because of the driving dynamics, handling, excellent acceleration and breaking. I'm so glad I discovered the cruze.

In July of 2015 I found I found myself on the hunt for a new car. I needed something cheaper as a new car was not in the budget. I purchased a 2015 Cruze LS from Sunrise Chevrolet in Memphis, TN. This is a smaller car then what I have been used to but I have gotten used to it. I am so shocked that a base model has so much technology. I love the hands free Bluetooth, the XM Radio, OnStar... all of it! During the free OnStar / XM trial I realized that I had not programmed radio channels as I never used the radio. XM is GREAT! The Navigation thru OnStar is simply amazing! I read a review that one person said they were not even getting 30mpg on the highway... I am. In fact, With my cruise set to 70 on the highway I average about 38mpg. That in itself is awesome! I have been so pleased with this car. 8 months into ownership, I am so happy I made this decision. I bought mine new and the GM warranty and 2 yr service at no cost was a pleaseant surprise. GM, you did well! Now, I want the new body style!

I just purchased a new 2015 Chevy Cruze LS Automatic, and I absolutely love it. My mother has a 2014 model, and she loves it as well. The Cruze is a fine choice for anyone looking for reliable and comfortable transportation. It is one of the best compact cars out there.
